Prologue pt. 2
The Rule of Benedict May 3
Father Benedict seeks here to inspire a disposition of urgent attention in the hearts of his disciples. This urgency is set against our own lethargy and tendency to harden our hearts to the light and voice of God. Benedict strikes this tone at the outset of the Rule because one's disposition at the beginning of a journey sets one's course. As we begin again to listen to this Rule, let us do so with earnest, eager, urgent attention to what the Spirit is saying.
